I was wondering how you guys calculate nail capacity in plywood? I checked the wood connection calculator and didn't see it as an option at first glance. Just wondering if anyone knows of a resource on this at least or if you could point me in the right direction.

Thank you!

Chapter 12 of NDS, assuming you are located in the U.S. Specifically Table 12.3.1A. If you don't know the exact makeup or species used in the plywood, make sure you pay particular attention to table 12.3.3B in the NDS.
 
If you'd like a more in-depth exploration, you can also check American Wood Councils (AWC) Technical Report 12 (TR12).
